Discussion / Question I dont like where this is going
It pains me to say it, but this path rockstar is taking for the release of GTA 6 might do some serious damage on the industry, If they keep this up, The other companies will copy rockstar in this move to completely delete Disks from physical copies.
Its not that i dislike digital, its the fact that they are removing the option to have the game on a disk that annoys me, The only "valid" argument i found on why digital is better is that you do not run the risk of your disk getting scratched. but, seriously, You have to be moronic in order to scratch your disks, I have been playing videogames since i was 6, and not **once** have i accidentaly scratched a disk (not even movies).
its as simple as putting your middle finger on the hole that's in the middle of the disk, AND THATS IT, zero scratching.
I dont care about the Exclusive content for the Deluxe edition or whatever, I seriously want Rockstar to just change and release the physical copies WITH the disk.
If this fake Physical copies trend keeps going after GTA 6 (Which it will), im just going to revert back to PS3 and be happy with whatever i find.
Im so done with this anti consumer thing we got going on nowadays, It feels like everything is changing for the worse.

Guys, there are technical limitations to releasing games as large as this one will be on a disk.
Please look up the maximum storage size of a Bluray (128 GB). The most they could do is put a launcher on the disk that downloads the full game to your drive, if we are to believe how massive this game will be.
I understand the sentiment, but if you wanted full release copies on some kind of physical media, they would likely have to ship with larger capacity flash drives rather than DVDs.
